"Pffft" By Ces And Bella Sinclair

From Tessa Edwards: The Ces Oak and The Giraffe

Tessa Edwards: "And guess what! I've ordered a sapling oak to plant in our new garden. It's an English Oak(Quercus robur), which is a wonderfully rugged and very handsome deciduous tree which provides a rich habitat for other plants and is a valuable source of food for wildlife. It's a large tree with 'a broad head of spectacularly spreading branches filled with small clusters of catkins and flower spikes each spring' - followed by masses of acorns in lovely autumn tints of bright yellow and russet brown. I'm going to call it 'Queen Ces'. Oh yes I am! It will be my very own Magic Faraway Tree." Thank you, Tessa. Tsup! Tsup!!

This is not a scientific site about oaks. I am not a botanist. I am a registered nurse and a clinical rule writer-analyst and former speech therapist who loves oak, reading about oak and drawing acorns and oak leaves in my own style. I use the referenced description of the acorn and leaves to help define my illustrations. The acorns and leaves are not drawn to scale.
